After viewing many of the technology standards, I feel as if I could teach about the LAFS.910.W.2.6 standard. It is about teaching students the key board and how to use some software applications like Microsoft word. It also includes navigating site such as Skype and creating online blogs. I already have a good knowledge on these items. I also have many years of experience using all of these applications. So if I had to teach it, I feel my knowledge of the content would help me be able to teach it effectively. From looking over the other standards I feel that I would need more knowledge in post and artifact creators. I do not feel as if my knowledge on these would be good enough to teach others how to use it. I would want to be able to answer questions about it and with those I feel I could not do that. From the CPALMS website there are a lot of good material and lessons. From the tool kit I liked SS.912.A.1.2. This is about Primary and Secondary sources. These types of sources are critical for papers and for research on a topic. I have always used them in my education history so I know that it will be helpful and useful to teach it. These skills will help in college so it will be good to teach it to them while they are young so they can have an experience with using them. So since I have had history with it, that is why I feel it will be so important. Also it is on the CPALMS website so I see a great significance in it there. I enjoyed working on the newsletter design project. Most of the work to me were tasks that I already knew how to do. With that, I do not feel that I acquired any new set of skills. I like being able to get creative with it and make it the way I wanted too. I felt as if I was able to be in control over the content that went in it. I really liked having that freedom to do so. I did not like some of the items that were suppose to be included in it. I feel it could change by giving options on what should be added to the newsletter. What I learned can be used in the future for when I may decided to use a newsletter. I know what should be added and how to make it pleasing to look at. I feel it would be more effective and more students would read what is in it.

ILP "Participation"- Technology Showcase

Image
I visited the Technology Showcase before class and it was a great learning experience. I had a hands on experience with the different types of technologies used in our schools today. I got to use the three different types of smart boards. I used AR and VR. Those were very neat because I have never used them before and it was a new experience. I did get a little motion sick from it though. I also used the robots that are very helpful for the ones learning experience. They have a robot that records video and sound of instruction. They even have an IPad that gives you the ability to incorporate learning with different games. My activity notes: The equipment is very fancy and seem very expensive. I like the white board that plays games. It would keep the kids interested with learning. But if it was for high school kids the normal white boards would probably work best. Or with older kids, I would use the VR and AR. I think they would enjoy that more and it would be more practical. Also,...

Initial Blog Post (Post #0)

My name is Logan Brown. I am from Jacksonville, Florida. I am a die hard FSU sports fan. I also am a big Jaguars fan. I love sports, animals, and food. A day in my life is pretty busy during the week. I work two jobs and a full time student. I am gone non stop until  the weekend. I love the weekends because I do not have work so I am able to relax and focus on some school work. But when it comes to the school work, I am such a good procrastinator! Oh and I LOVE to spend money, I am pretty good at that too. In the past I have not used too much technology. I am from the west side of Jacksonville so the funding was not that good. I am just used to white boards and some projectors. I have visited the sandbox here and it is very neat. All the educational technology is amazing and is making learning more fun that what it used to be. I wish I was taught with it because I feel as if I would have paid a little more attention to it throughout my learning. I hope to learn all the new gadget...

Persanolly I am not a fan of the flipped classroom. To me that type of classroom is far away from the traditional style that most everyone knows today. In the flipped style you kind of help yourself and others learn the material. You can do the learning on your own. Once you do the learning you come and explain what you know. This gives the teacher a way to make sure you have learned the correct material. It will also include more activities. I do not think this style is for everyone though. OERs are to help people learn but with out the nuisance of spending money all different types of resources. OERs give you a way to get some education resource from all over. From the site I was on they explain many types of OERs. They also give out resources for anyone to use. They organize the material as courses. The material is also for higher education. They give out wanted information for the ones who are in universities and beyond. I find it very helpful because I learn more on OERS and see...
